Exclusive Listening Party Review: Yolanda Adams’ Sunny Days

Step into the world of soul, spirit, and sunshine with Yolanda Adams! The gospel queen hosted an intimate listening party for her highly anticipated album, Sunny Days, and Snubb3d Magazine was there to soak it all in. Presented by BMI at the iconic MODX Studio in Atlanta, this exclusive event gave media insiders and influencers a first listen to a project that’s as warm and radiant as the title suggests.

The evening, skillfully orchestrated by Catherine Brewton, VP of Creative at BMI, felt more like a gathering of friends than a formal industry event. With her signature warmth, Yolanda Adams took us on a journey through her latest work, track by track, sharing stories, laughs, and heartfelt moments.

“Church Doors” – A Soul-Stirring Opener

The evening opened with “Church Doors,” a powerhouse collaboration featuring the legendary Donald Lawrence and the ever-innovative Sir the Baptist. The song’s message is clear: church isn’t just confined to four walls. It’s anywhere you find faith, community, and love. The beat dropped, the voices soared, and the room was instantly moved. A sea of applause confirmed that Adams’ message had hit home.

“Blessings” – Spreading the Love

Next up was “Blessings,” a track brimming with hope and positivity, co-produced by Donald Lawrence. Yolanda shared her heartfelt wish for everyone who hears Sunny Days to feel blessed beyond their wildest dreams. The audience, touched by the sincerity of her words, nodded and clapped in agreement. If ever there was a song to brighten a cloudy day, this is it.

“When We Pray” – A Deep, Reflective Journey

Yolanda then introduced us to “When We Pray,” produced by the dynamic duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. She insisted it’s a song you have to experience from start to finish. Recorded in Los Angeles, the track’s introspective and soulful tone resonated deeply with the crowd. Every note seemed to stir something spiritual, and by the end, the room was filled with appreciative applause.

“Child of God” – A Family Affair with Island Vibes

A definite highlight of the night was “Child of God,” an island-infused anthem that had everyone swaying. Produced by Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, and John Jackson, this track brought a fresh, breezy feel to the album. But the true magic came from the fact that Yolanda’s own daughter, Taylor Crawford, co-wrote the song and provided background vocals. Seeing Taylor in the audience as her contribution filled the air made the moment even more special.

An Evening of Reflection and Inspiration

During the Q&A session, Yolanda opened up about her musical inspirations. She credited gospel legends like Tremaine Hawkins, Shirley Caesar, and Sally Martin for guiding her through the industry. Sally Martin, a Chicago gospel icon, even influenced Yolanda’s savvy business acumen, proving that the journey is not just about music but also about mastering the industry.

One of the night’s most thought-provoking moments came when Yolanda spoke about “All About You,” a track that dives deep into self-love and living in your truth. While she acknowledged the song might stir some controversy, she was firm in her belief that it’s not about arrogance—it’s about owning the person God made you to be.

A Night to Remember

By the time the evening wrapped, attendees left feeling refreshed and inspired, filled with the soulful messages of Sunny Days. Yolanda Adams has once again proven that she’s more than just a gospel singer—she’s a beacon of light, offering music that uplifts, encourages, and empowers. We can’t wait for the album’s full release, and if the listening party is any indication, Sunny Days will shine for a long time to come.
